You'll probably have to find some DT hubs and lace the SM rims onto them.

f*cked getting married so young! lol

Why u dump her if u loved her so much?

(sorry, no help on the Q asked!)
i know im a fool.

well for starters she wants the bike gone, has made me stop smoking and drinking, keeps me in all week (worse than my mother if you ask me) cheated on me while i was on holiday, doesnt work, pretty much f*cked up her college,coz i have money i have to buy her things and to top it all off.. i found out she was a smackhead... just what i need i life a f*cked up smackhead whore that think she owns me.

she even had the attitude to tell me i spend to much time and money on the bike,,MY money.

and i she did nothing but treat me like sh*t, she battered me one day and coz of the person i am i wouldnt hit her back.

well thats my story. anyone else have a fun life like me
lol

have a mesure up of your back wheel and look at what size back wheel u can get (watch out for chain rub) but maybe dtx wheels will fit or aprilia mx wheels they r always on ebay usally (back wheels might be bit too wide)

i guess i could keep the rear wheel and change the front one, i know it wouldnt be proper moto but itd save some hastle i guess.

but if i kept the hubs i wouldnt need t change the brakes setup on it.

its never as easy as you think, wait til i try with the rd engine in the dt lol

LOL told u aprilia mx wheels r always on ebay well here u go btw the rear tyre is a 160 so i would have a mesure up (more than likely will rub the chain) btw u would have to take off the tyre turn it round and put ur sprocket on or modify that 1 but part from that nice wheels ur lucky they inc tyres and disks

I reckon you could get away with keeping the rear. Stick an 18 up front to have it subtle or you could go with a 17 which would give it a very aggressive stance.

thats what i was thinking as its be a bit cheaper than a full set but with a full set i could get them to *bling bling*.

im just going to see what comes up on Egay.

thanks for all the replys guys

Nah you don't need a full set to make it look bling. All you need to do is find a chrome 18" rim to go up front and then stick a Cemoto SM front fender on and it'll look wicked.

EDIT: Oh yeah if you want some serious grip, try the Avon Distanzias when you get the new tyres.

The choice is up to you. Not that many DTs with an 18 front so I'd probably do that myself.

The tyres are about ?130 with fitting to loose wheels.
